What is so impressive about the Lions is that they were averaging something like 73.5 yards rushing per game before Kevin Jones, and since Jones return they're averaging a considerable deal more than 100 yards rushing per game. (Stats from Fox Sports)

And that is with an O-line that has been having players put in and taken out a lot, and a line that stats would seem to suggest can block for their life.

Yet Jones has gotten their running game going big time, and it makes you wonder about the perception that our o-line is to blame for our running woes... if we had a better back perhaps we'd have had more success than we've had so far...

Cutler missed a good portion of the game.
Lynch missed the entire game.

I think.

I believe the Lions are a decent team. I haven't watched them enough to make a good judgment on them tho.

I was switching back and forth between games, and the Broncos (when Cutler was back there) couldn't get into any rhythm.

The DTs were causing some MAJOR disruption, and given that Colledge isn't exactly the strongest player on the team... I'm a little worried. :-?

Lions were having clear lanes to run the ball through, but it is Denver they played....

What worried me was the use of Mike Furrey (sp?), the guy had all the room in the middle to work because Lions were going with 4/5 WRs that ran to the outsides, clearing space for Furrey to do some damage through the middle.
